These guys are all incredible! Won't the colors interbreed, though? Or would that just give you random colors, like a black one and a red one gets you black babies and red babies? I don't know too much about shrimpy genetics...

the baby wine red was up and about just now, so i snapped some pics. they arent perfect, but the little bugger is so tiny it was the best i could do:

saw a shrimplet during my WC. so excited!

im fairly certain its a blue diamond, but i should see some TBs soon, cuz the ruby red is no longer berried.

got a pic of the berries (or rather of one of the berries) on the BKK. also, the first blue diamond to be berried is no longer berried, so im hoping to get a pic of a shrimplet soon.

i think a bit of both.
i havent seen her in days before today. and my wine red only comes out every few days too - when i used to be able to see here instantly before she berried.
and with both, you can only see the berries from beneath - except when they fan their swimerrets or swim.

Try to get pictures! I've never been able to get photos of any of my berried BKKs.

Seems like they hide more when berried than other berried shrimp. Or maybe they're just harder to see because they're dark.

@marko@

noticed today that the king kong is berried.
cant promise pictures, because even noticing these shrimp are berried is hard. getting a pic of it would be nearly impossible.
but i hope to take pics of some baby shrimps in due time...
